Motivation
After 28 years the NOBUGS conference finally came back to where it started - the European Photon and Neutron Campus, home to the ESRF and ILL in Grenoble! The goal of the NOBUGS (New Opportunities for Better User Group Software) Conference Series is to foster collaboration and exchange between scientists and IT professionals working on software for X-ray, neutron and muon sources from around the world. Better software for data acquisition and data analysis will increase productivity of facility users and thus maximize the scientific output.
A large number of satellite meetings were organised before and after the conference on specialised topics. Refer to the page on Satellite Meetings for the list of satellite meetings and links to their respective indico pages.
Conference Topics
The conference will cover the following topics for beamlines and scientific experiments:
- Advanced data acquisition
- AI/ML applications
- Beamline control systems
- Data Analysis
- Data Reduction
- Data Visualisation
- Experiments automation
- FAIR data management
- Metadata + Data Formats
- Open source collaborations
- Other relevant topics
- Remote user interfaces
